Also, it’s not easy learning that the trans murder count is continuing to rise with no end in sight. 19 known (as in, there are likely so many more that just don’t make the news) murders, 17 were POC. I don’t think there was a time in reported history when our murder rate was higher. Then again, trans murders typically went unreported back then anyway.

Seriously, putting the trans movement in the media spotlight is possibly the worst thing that has happened to us yet. It started off so fucking well, then it immediately tanked into what it is now.
